Ozzy Osbourne died yesterday at the age of seventy-six. To understand the cultural insight Osbourne’s career illustrates, ask yourself whether his music celebrating themes of horror, doom, paranoia, drug abuse, and the occult would have been popular (or even possible) twenty years earlier. In other news, Monday was the one-hundredth anniversary of the Scopes Monkey Trial conclusion. At issue was Tennessee’s law prohibiting the teaching of evolution in public schools. In many ways, the cultural conflict revealed by the trial has been exacerbated by the normalization of evolutionary theory that it produced for many.
